From the first day of reaching out to Orla, to the offer of a favourable and exciting opportunity, she has displayed such professionalism, with impeccable consistency and genuine interest in my employment journey. Orla remained focused and efficient, with her sole goal in perfectly matching an individual to a role and firm which was suitable for both candidate and client. This I feel is a true flare she expresses and her feedback was immediate and sometimes even after business hours. Such a lady, who no doubt is and will be extremely valued within the field of legal recruitment. I cannot express my recommendation of Pathway Careers enough. Thank you Orla.

I’ve had the luck of connecting with Orla over the past year. Orla not only helped me in my search for the role that would be the best fit, but also helped me explore the possibilities of other areas of law worth considering. Orla listened to my concerns, my goals, and my interests and helped me to understand the legal market in every day terms.
Every conversation I had with Orla left me feeling heard, valued, and hopeful, but also confident.
I cannot recommend Orla Milligan highly enough to friends and colleagues who are in the market for a new role, or even just looking to explore their career path / growth.

She was incredibly helpful, responsive, and truly understood what I was looking for in a new role. Thanks to her taking the time to understand what I was looking for, she found me a great job much faster than I expected. Her professionalism and genuine care made all the difference.

Orla was fantastic in helping finding me a new role. A brief message from myself on LinkedIn was followed up with a phone call from Orla providing me with the full details of the role I applied for.
I appreciated Orla’s honesty when discussing whether I would be fit for the role, and the confidence that she instilled prior to the interview.
Orla also made sure to touch base with me following the interviews and ensured that I was kept fully informed on her discussions with the firm in which I will be moving too.
I would highly recommend Orla to anyone seeking employment within the Legal industry as she’s not solely focused on placing a candidate in any role, she ensures that the role is a good fit for everyone involved.
Finally, I’d like to say a massive thanks to Orla for getting me a move, and I’m really looking forward to getting started.

I have been using Orla’s services for over a decade now. Orla has her finger on the pulse, understands my skill set and is incredibly efficient and professional at all times. Orla would be very pro active at networking to find a position. I regularly change my job and would always consult Orla first. Even if I am just having a wobble Orla will still provide details of what is available and nothing is ever a problem to her. I would strongly recommend her to anyone in the legal profession who is seeking employment.

Have known Orla for many years now. She has found me a number of positions in my field and I have loved everywhere I have worked! Simply put, she is the best at what she does! I am currently in a wonderful role which was found by Orla and hoping to see out my career here but will always recommend for any staff requirements in future!

Katrina Lyons
On my recent search on the employment market for a Paralegal role, which was something I had not done in almost 15 years, I can honestly say Orla was absolutely amazing! On receipt of my CV, Orla contacted me immediately to discuss what I was looking for and to get a feel for what I had to offer. I could tell she knew almost immediately which firms would be most interested in my application and my need for hybrid-working.
Orla was very pro-active and constantly followed-up with phone calls and emails keeping me informed of her progress and any feedback. Even right up to the day of my interview, her calls were full of encouragement and positivity.
